About 4 months ago, I shipped the first version of my app with 4 versioned schemas that, unintentionally, had the same versionIdentifier of 1.2.0 in 2 of them: V1: 1.0.0 V2: 1.1.0 V3: 1.2.0 V4: 1.2.0 They are ordered correctly in the MigrationPlan, and they are all lightweight. Migration works, SwiftData doesn't crash on init and I haven't encountered any issues related to this. The app syncs with iCloud. Questions, preferable for anybody with knowledge of SwiftData internals: What will break in SwiftData when there are 2 duplicate numbers? Not that I would expect it to be safe, but does it happen to be safe to ship an update that changes V4's version to 1.3.0, what was originally intended?

My Code: let op = CKModifyRecordsOperation(recordIDsToDelete:recordIDsToDelete) op.modifyRecordsCompletionBlock = { _, deleteRecordIDs, error in if error == nil { print("successful delete deleteRecordIDS = \(deleteRecordIDs)") } else { print("delete error = \(error?.localizedDescription)") } } op.database = CKContainer.default().privateCloudDatabase op.qualityOfService = .userInitiated CKContainer.default().privateCloudDatabase.add(op) My problem is that CKRecord are not deleted once I reinstall the app: when I reinstall the app and try to delete a CloudKit record, the method is executed successfully (error is nil) but the records are still in CloudKit Dashboards.

Hello everyone, I'm trying to adopt the new Staged Migrations for Core Data and I keep running into an error that I haven't been able to resolve. The error messages are as follows: warning: Multiple NSEntityDescriptions claim the NSManagedObject subclass 'Movie' so +entity is unable to disambiguate. warning: 'Movie' (0x60000350d6b0) from NSManagedObjectModel (0x60000213a8a0) claims 'Movie'. error: +[Movie entity] Failed to find a unique match for an NSEntityDescription to a managed object subclass This happens for all of my entities when they are added/fetched. Movie is an abstract entity subclass, and it has the error error: +[Movie entity] Failed to find which is unique to the subclass entities, but this occurs for all entities. The NSPersistentContainer is loaded only once, and I set the following option after it's loaded: storeDescription.setOption( [stages], forKey: NSPersistentStoreStagedMigrationManagerOptionKey ) The warnings and errors only appear after I fetch or save to context. It happens regardless of whether the database was migrated or not. In my test project, using the generic NSManagedObject with NSEntityDescription.insertNewObject(forEntityName: "MyEntity", into: context) does not cause the issue. However, using the generic NSManagedObject is not a viable option for my app. Setting the module to "Current Project Module" doesn't change anything, except that it now prints "claims 'MyModule.Show'" in the warnings. I have verified that there are no other entities with the same name or renameIdentifier. Has anyone else encountered this issue, or can offer any suggestions on how to resolve it? Thanks in advance for any help!

I want to get to a point where I can use a small view with a query for my SwiftData model like this: @Query private var currentTrainingCycle: [TrainingCycle] init(/*currentDate: Date*/) { _currentTrainingCycle = Query(filter: #Predicate<TrainingCycle> { $0.numberOfDays > 0 // $0.startDate < currentDate && currentDate < $0.endDate }, sort: \.startDate) } The commented code is where I want to go. In this instance, it'd be created as a lazy var in a viewModel to have it stable (and not constantly re-creating the view). Since it was not working, I thought I could check the same view with a query that does not require any dynamic input. In this case, the numberOfDays never changes after instantiation. But still, each time the app tries to create this view, the app becomes unresponsive, the CPU usage goes at 196%, memory goes way high and the device heats up quickly. Am I holding it wrong? How can I have a dynamic predicate on a View in SwiftUI with SwiftData?

I've run into a strange issue. If a sheet loads a view that has a SwiftData @Query, and there is an if statement in the view body, I get the following error when running an iOS targetted SwiftUI app under MacOS 26.1: Set a .modelContext in view's environment to use Query While the view actually ends up loading the correct data, before it does, it ends up re-creating the sqlite store (opening as /dev/null). The strange thing is that this only happens if there is an if statement in the body. The statement need not ever evaluate true, but it causes the issue. Here's an example. It's based on the default xcode new iOS project w/ SwiftData: struct ContentView: View { @State private var isShowingSheet = false var body: some View { Button(action: { isShowingSheet.toggle() }) { Text("Show Sheet") } .sheet(isPresented: $isShowingSheet, onDismiss: didDismiss) { VStack { ContentSheetView() } } } func didDismiss() { } } struct ContentSheetView: View { @Environment(\.modelContext) private var modelContext @Query public var items: [Item] @State var fault: Bool = false var body: some View { VStack { if fault { Text("Fault!") } Button(action: addItem) { Label("Add Item", systemImage: "plus") } List { ForEach(items) { item in Text(item.timestamp, format: Date.FormatStyle(date: .numeric, time: .standard)) } } } } private func addItem() { withAnimation { let newItem = Item(timestamp: Date()) modelContext.insert(newItem) } } } It requires some data to be added to trigger, but after adding it and dismissing the sheet, opening up the sheet with trigger the Set a .modelContext in view's environment to use Query. Flipping on -com.apple.CoreData.SQLDebug 1 will show it trying to recreate the database. If you remove the if fault { Text("Fault!") } line, it goes away. It also doesn't appear to happen on iPhones or in the iPhone simulator. Explicitly passing modelContext to the ContentSheetView like ContentSheetView().modelContext(modelContext) also seems to fix it. Is this behavior expected?

Hi all, I have setup my app to use SwiftData with CloudKit sync. I have a production environment and development environment. I can reset the development environment for myself and all users in CloudKit console, but I can't reset the production one as it's tried to users' iCloud accounts, so I've added a button in-app for that feature. In the onboarding of my app, I pre-seed the DB with some default objects, which should be persisted between app install. The issue I'm running into is that I'm unable to force-pull these models from iCloud during the onboarding of a clean re-install, which leads to the models later appearing as duplicates once the user has been on the app for a few minutes and it has pulled from their iCloud account. If anyone has any suggestions on how to handle this issue, I would greatly appreciate it.

Hi, I'm having trouble implementing iCloud Drive in my app. I've already taken the obvious steps, including enabling iCloud Documents in Xcode and selecting a container. This container is correctly specified in my code, and in theory, everything should work. The data generated by my app should be saved to iCloud Drive in addition to local storage. The data does get stored in the Files app, but the automatic syncing to iCloud Drive doesn’t work as expected. I’ve also considered updating my .entitlements file. Since I’m at a loss, I’m reaching out for help maybe I’ve overlooked something important that's causing it not to work. If anyone has an idea, please let me know. Thanks in advance!

If use a SortDescriptor for a model and sort by some attribute from a relationship, in DEBUG mode it all works fine and sorts. However, in release mode, it is an instant crash. SortDescriptor(.name, order: .reverse) ---- works SortDescriptor(.assignedUser?.name, order: .reverse) ---- works in debug but crash in release. What is the issue here, is it that SwiftData just incompetent to do this?

Hi, I’m completely stuck with a very strange CloudKit problem that started recently and has now killed all iCloud sync for a live production app. What is happening Production container: iCloud.gainzCloud (created ~11 months ago, has been working perfectly until now) In Xcode 26.0 (17A321): → Signing & Capabilities → iCloud is enabled → Container correctly shows as iCloud.gainzCloud → App builds and runs on device/simulator with zero provisioning or container errors CloudKit Dashboard (https://icloud.developer.apple.com/dashboard/): completely blank – “No containers found” Result: CloudKit sync is dead for every user (development + production environments) What I know for sure Apple Developer Support confirmed the container iCloud.gainzCloud still exists and is correctly attached to my Team ID on their backend Personal iCloud (Mail, Notes, Photos, etc.) syncs perfectly on the same Mac / same Apple ID under macOS Tahoe 26.1 I have NOT changed the password on either the Apple ID or the Developer Program account New containers I create appear in Xcode but never show up in the Dashboard Environment macOS Tahoe 26.1 (latest) Xcode Version 26.0 (17A321) Has anyone on the new Tahoe/Xcode 26 releases seen the CloudKit Dashboard suddenly go completely empty while Xcode still “sees” the container just fine? Any known trick to force the dashboard to re-index containers or clear whatever cache is broken? Thanks a lot in advance – this is blocking all iCloud functionality for a released app with active users.

Hello 👋, I encounter the "This model instance was invalidated because its backing data could no longer be found the store" crash with SwiftData. Which from what I understood means I try to access a model after it has been removed from the store (makes sense). I made a quick sample to reproduce/better understand because there some case(s) I can't figure it out. Let's take a concrete example, we have Home model and a Home can have many Room(s). // Sample code @MainActor let foo = Foo() // A single reference let database = Database(modelContainer: sharedModelContainer) // A single reference @MainActor class Foo { // Properties to explicilty keep reference of model(s) for the purpose of the POC var _homes = [Home]() var _rooms = [Room]() func fetch() async { let homes = await database.fetch().map { sharedModelContainer.mainContext.model(for: $0) as! Home } print(ObjectIdentifier(homes[0]), homes[0].rooms?.map(\.id)) // This will crash here or not. } // Same version of a delete function with subtle changes. // Depending on the one you use calling delete then fetch will result in a crash or not. // Keep a reference to only homes == NO CRASH func deleteV1() async { self._homes = await database.fetch().map { sharedModelContainer.mainContext.model(for: $0) as! Home } await database.delete() } // Keep a reference to only rooms == NO CRASH func deleteV2() async { self._rooms = await database.fetch().map { sharedModelContainer.mainContext.model(for: $0) as! Home }[0].rooms ?? [] await database.delete() } // Keep a reference to homes & rooms == CRASH 💥 func deleteV3() async { self._homes = await database.fetch().map { sharedModelContainer.mainContext.model(for: $0) as! Home } self._rooms = _homes[0].rooms ?? [] // or even only retain reference to rooms that have NOT been deleted 🤔 like here "id: 2" make it crash // self._rooms = _homes[0].rooms?.filter { r in r.id == "2" } ?? [] await database.delete() } } Calling deleteV() then fetch() will result in a crash or not depending on the scenario. I guess I understand deleteV1, deleteV2. In those case an unsaved model is served by the model(for:) API and accessing properties later on will resolve correctly. The doc says: "The identified persistent model, if known to the context; otherwise, an unsaved model with its persistentModelID property set to persistentModelID." But I'm not sure about deleteV3. It seems the ModelContext is kind of "aware" there is still cyclic reference between my models that are retained in my code so it will serve these instances instead when calling model(for:) API ? I see my home still have 4 rooms (instead of 2). So I then try to access rooms that are deleted and it crash. Why of that ? I mean why not returning home with two room like in deleteV1 ? Because SwiftData heavily rely on CoreData may be I miss a very simple thing here. If someone read this and have a clue for me I would be extremely graceful. PS: If someone wants to run it on his machine here's some helpful code: // Database let sharedModelContainer: ModelContainer = { let schema = Schema([ Home.self, Room.self, ]) let modelConfiguration = ModelConfiguration(schema: schema, isStoredInMemoryOnly: false) debugPrint(modelConfiguration.url.absoluteString.replacing("%20", with: "\\ ")) return try! ModelContainer(for: schema, configurations: [modelConfiguration]) }() extension Database { static let shared = Database(modelContainer: sharedModelContainer) } @ModelActor actor Database { func insert() async { let r1 = Room(id: "1", name: "R1") let r2 = Room(id: "2", name: "R2") let r3 = Room(id: "3", name: "R3") let r4 = Room(id: "4", name: "R4") let home = Home(id: "1", name: "My Home") home.rooms = [r1, r2, r3, r4] modelContext.insert(home) try! modelContext.save() } func fetch() async -> [PersistentIdentifier] { try! modelContext.fetchIdentifiers(FetchDescriptor<Home>()) } @MainActor func delete() async { let mainContext = sharedModelContainer.mainContext try! mainContext.delete( model: Room.self, where: #Predicate { r in r.id == "1" || r.id == "4" } ) try! mainContext.save() // 🤔 Calling fetch here seems to solve crash too, force home relationship to be rebuild correctly ? // let _ = try! sharedModelContainer.mainContext.fetch(FetchDescriptor<Home>()) } } // Models @Model class Home: Identifiable { @Attribute(.unique) public var id: String var name: String @Relationship(deleteRule: .cascade, inverse: \Room.home) var rooms: [Room]? init(id: String, name: String, rooms: [Room]? = nil) { self.id = id self.name = name self.rooms = rooms } } @Model class Room: Identifiable { @Attribute(.unique) public var id: String var name: String var home: Home? init(id: String, name: String, home: Home? = nil) { self.id = id self.name = name self.home = home } }

Hello, thank you Apple for supporting custom store with SwiftData and the Schema type is superb to work with. I have successfully set one up with SQL and have some feedback and issues regarding its APIs. There’s a highlighted message in the documentation about not using internal restricted symbols directly, but they contradict with the given protocols and I am concerned about breaking any App Store rules. Are we allowed to use these? If not, they should be opened up as they’re useful. BackingData is required to set up custom snapshots, initialization, and getting/setting values. And I want to use it with createBackingData() to directly initialize instances from snapshots when transferring them between server and client or concurrency. RelationshipCollection for casting to-many relationships from backing data or checking if an array contains a PersistentModel. SchemaProperty for type erasure in a collection. Schema.Relationship has KeyPath properties, but it is missing for Schema.Attribute and Schema.CompositeAttribute. Which means you can’t purely depend on the schema to map data. I am unable to access the properties of a custom struct type in a predicate unless I use Mirror with schemaMetadata() or CustomStringConvertible on the KeyPath directly to extract it. Trivial, but… the KeyPath property name is inconsistent (it’s all lowercase). It would be nice to retrieve property names from custom struct types, since you are unable access CodingKeys that are auto synthesized by Codable for structs. But I recently realized they’re a part Schema.CompositeAttribute, however I don’t know how to match these without the KeyPath… I currently map my entities using CodingKeys to their PredicateCodableKeyPathProviding.… but I wish for a simpler alternative! It’s unclear how to provide the schema to the snapshot before new models are created. I currently use a static property, but I want to make it flexible if more schemas and configurations are added later on. I considered saving and loading the schema in a temporary location, but doubtful that the KeyPath values will be available as they are not Codable. I suspect schemaMetadata() has the information I need to map the backing data without a schema for snapshots, but as mentioned previously, properties are inaccessible… Allow access to entity metatypes, like value types from SchemaProperty. They’re useful for getting data out of snapshots and casting them to CodingKeys and PredicateCodableKeyPathProviding. They do not carry over when you provide them in the Schema. I am unable to retrieve the primary key from PersistentIdentifier. It seems like once you create one, you can’t get it out, like the DataStoreConfiguration in ModelContainer is not the one you used to set it up. I cannot cast it, it is an entirely different struct? I have to use JSONSerialization to extract it, but I want to get it directly since it is not a column in my database. It is transformed when it goes to/from my tables. It’s unknown how to support some schema options, such as Spotlight and CloudKit. Allow for extending macro options, such as adding options to set as primary key, whether to auto increment, etc… You can create a schema for super and sub entities, but it doesn’t appear you can actually set them up from the @Model macro or use inheritance on these models… SwiftData history tracking seems incomplete for HistoryDelete, because that protocol requires HistoryTombstone, but this type cannot be instantiated, nor does it contain anything useful to infer from. As an aside, I want to create my own custom ModelActor that is a global actor. However, I’m unable to replicate the executor that Apple provides where the executor has a ModelContext, because this type does not conform to Sendable. So how did Apple do this? The documentation doesn’t mention unchecked Sendable, but I figure if the protocol is available then we would be able to set up our own. And please add concurrency features! Anyway, I hope for more continued support in the future and I am looking forward to what’s new this WWDC! 😊

I'm trying to build a custom FetchRequest that I can use outside a View. I've built the following ObservableFetchRequest class based on this article: https://augmentedcode.io/2023/04/03/nsfetchedresultscontroller-wrapper-for-swiftui-view-models @Observable @MainActor class ObservableFetchRequest&lt;Result: Storable&gt;: NSObject, @preconcurrency NSFetchedResultsControllerDelegate { private let controller: NSFetchedResultsController&lt;Result.E&gt; private var results: [Result] = [] init(context: NSManagedObjectContext = .default, predicate: NSPredicate? = Result.E.defaultPredicate(), sortDescriptors: [NSSortDescriptor] = Result.E.sortDescripors) { guard let request = Result.E.fetchRequest() as? NSFetchRequest&lt;Result.E&gt; else { fatalError("Failed to create fetch request for \(Result.self)") } request.predicate = predicate request.sortDescriptors = sortDescriptors controller = NSFetchedResultsController(fetchRequest: request, managedObjectContext: context, sectionNameKeyPath: nil, cacheName: nil) super.init() controller.delegate = self fetch() } private func fetch() { do { try controller.performFetch() refresh() } catch { fatalError("Failed to fetch results for \(Result.self)") } } private func refresh() { results = controller.fetchedObjects?.map { Result($0) } ?? [] } var predicate: NSPredicate? { get { controller.fetchRequest.predicate } set { controller.fetchRequest.predicate = newValue fetch() } } var sortDescriptors: [NSSortDescriptor] { get { controller.fetchRequest.sortDescriptors ?? [] } set { controller.fetchRequest.sortDescriptors = newValue.isEmpty ? nil : newValue fetch() } } internal func controllerDidChangeContent(_ controller: NSFetchedResultsController&lt;any NSFetchRequestResult&gt;) { refresh() } } Till this point, everything works fine. Then, I conformed my class to RandomAccessCollection, so I could use in a ForEach loop without having to access the results property. extension ObservableFetchRequest: @preconcurrency RandomAccessCollection, @preconcurrency MutableCollection { subscript(position: Index) -&gt; Result { get { results[position] } set { results[position] = newValue } } public var endIndex: Index { results.endIndex } public var indices: Indices { results.indices } public var startIndex: Index { results.startIndex } public func distance(from start: Index, to end: Index) -&gt; Int { results.distance(from: start, to: end) } public func index(_ i: Index, offsetBy distance: Int) -&gt; Index { results.index(i, offsetBy: distance) } public func index(_ i: Index, offsetBy distance: Int, limitedBy limit: Index) -&gt; Index? { results.index(i, offsetBy: distance, limitedBy: limit) } public func index(after i: Index) -&gt; Index { results.index(after: i) } public func index(before i: Index) -&gt; Index { results.index(before: i) } public typealias Element = Result public typealias Index = Int } The issue is, when I update the ObservableFetchRequest predicate while searching, it causes a Index out of range error in the Collection subscript because the ForEach loop (or a List loop) access a old version of the array when the item property is optional. List(request, selection: $selection) { item in VStack(alignment: .leading) { Text(item.content) if let information = item.information { // here's the issue, if I leave this out, everything works Text(information) .font(.callout) .foregroundStyle(.secondary) } } .tag(item.id) .contextMenu { if Item.self is Client.Type { Button("Editar") { openWindow(ClientView(client: item as! Client), id: item.id!) } } } } Is it some RandomAccessCollection issue or a SwiftUI bug?

I'm experiencing the following error with my SwiftData container when running a build: Code=134504 "Cannot use staged migration with an unknown model version." Code Structure - Summary I am using a versionedSchema to store multiple models in SwiftData. I started experiencing this issue when adding two new models in the newest Schema version. Starting from the current public version, V4.4.6, there are two migrations. Migration Summary The first migration is to V4.4.7. This is a lightweight migration removing one attribute from one of the models. This was tested and worked successfully. The second migration is to V5.0.0. This is a custom migration adding two new models, and instantiating instances of the two new models based on data from instances of the existing models. In the initial testing of this version, no issues were observed. Issue and Steps to Reproduce Reproduction of issue: Starting from a fresh build of the publicly released V4.4.6, I run a new build that contains both Schema Versions (V4.4.7 and V5.0.0), and their associated migration stages. This builds successfully, and the container successfully migrates to V5.0.0. Checking the default.store file, all values appear to migrate and instantiate correctly. The second step in reproduction of the issue is to simply stop running the build, and then rebuild, without any code changes. This fails to initialize the model container every time afterwards. Going back to the simulator after successive builds are stopped in Xcode, the app launches and accesses/modifies the model container as normal. Supplementary Issue: I have been putting up with the same, persistent issue in the Xcode Preview Canvas of "Failed to Initialize Model Container" This is a 5 in 6 build issue, where builds will work at random. In the case of previews, I have cleared all data associated with all previews multiple times. The only difference being that the simulator is a 100% failure rate after the initial, successful initialization. I assume this is due to the different build structure of previews. Lastly, of note, the Xcode previews fail at the same line in instantiating the model container as the simulator does. From my research into this issue, people say that the Xcode preview is instantiating from elsewhere. I do have a separate model container set up specifically for canvas previews, but the error does not occur in that container, but rather the app's main container. Possible Contributing Factors & Tested Facts iOS: While I have experienced issues with SwiftData and the complier in iOS 26, I can rule that out as the issue here. This has been tested on simulators running iOS 18.6, 26.0.1, and 26.1, all encountering failures to initialize model container. While in iOS 18, subsequent builds after the successful migration did work, I did eventually encounter the same error and crash. In iOS 26.0.1 and 26.1, these errors come immediately on the second build. Container Initialization for V4.4.6 do { container = try ModelContainer( for: Job.self, JobTask.self, Day.self, Charge.self, Material.self, Person.self, TaskCategory.self, Service.self, migrationPlan: JobifyMigrationPlan.self ) } catch { fatalError("Failed to Initialize Model Container") } Versioned Schema Instance for V4.4.6 (V4.4.7 differs only by versionIdentifier) static var versionIdentifier = Schema.Version(4, 4, 6) static var models: [any PersistentModel.Type] { [Job.self, JobTask.self, Day.self, Charge.self, Material.self, Person.self, TaskCategory.self, Service.self] } Container Initialization for V5.0.0 do { let schema = Schema([Jobify.self, JobTask.self, Day.self, Charge.self, MaterialItem.self, Person.self, TaskCategory.self, Service.self, ServiceJob.self, RecurerRule.self]) container = try ModelContainer( for: schema, migrationPlan: JobifyMigrationPlan.self ) } catch { fatalError("Failed to Initialize Model Container") } Versioned Schema Instance for V5.0.0 static var versionIdentifier = Schema.Version(5, 0, 0) static var models: [any PersistentModel.Type] { [ JobifySchemaV500.Job.self, JobifySchemaV500.JobTask.self, JobifySchemaV500.Day.self, JobifySchemaV500.Charge.self, JobifySchemaV500.Material.self, JobifySchemaV500.Person.self, JobifySchemaV500.TaskCategory.self, JobifySchemaV500.Service.self, JobifySchemaV500.ServiceJob.self, JobifySchemaV500.RecurerRule.self ] } Addressing Differences in Object Names Type-aliasing: All my model types are type-aliased for simplification in view components. All types are aliased as 'JobifySchemeV446.<#Name#>' in V.4.4.6, and 'JobifySchemaV500.<#Name#>' in V5.0.0 Issues with iOS 26: My type-aliases dating back to iOS 17 overlapped with lower level objects in Swift, including 'Job' and 'Material'. These started to be an issue with initializing the model container when running in iOS 26. The type aliases have been renamed since, however the V4.4.6 build with the old names runs and builds perfectly fine in iOS 26 If there is any other code that may be relevant in determining where this error is occurring, I would be happy to add it. My current best theory is simply that I have mistakenly omitted code relevant to the SwiftData Migration.

When creating a new project in Xcode 26, the default for defaultIsolation is MainActor. Core Data creates classes for each entity using code gen, but now those classes are also internally marked as MainActor, which causes issues when accessing managed object from a background thread like this. Is there a way to fix this warning or should Xcode actually mark these auto generated classes as nonisolated to make this better? Filed as FB13840800. nonisolated struct BackgroundDataHandler { @concurrent func saveItem() async throws { let context = await PersistenceController.shared.container.newBackgroundContext() try await context.perform { let newGame = Item(context: context) newGame.timestamp = Date.now // Main actor-isolated property 'timestamp' can not be mutated from a nonisolated context; this is an error in the Swift 6 language mode try context.save() } } } Turning code gen off inside the model and creating it manually, with the nonisolated keyword, gets rid of the warning and still works fine. So I guess the auto generated class could adopt this as well? public import Foundation public import CoreData public typealias ItemCoreDataClassSet = NSSet @objc(Item) nonisolated public class Item: NSManagedObject { }

According to my experiments SwiftData does not work with model attributes of primitive type UInt64. More precisely, it crashes in the getter of a UInt64 attribute invoked on an object fetched from the data store. With Core Data persistent UInt64 attributes are not a problem. Does anyone know whether SwiftData will ever support UInt64?

Hi all, I recently discovered that I forgot to deploy my CloudKit schema changes from development to production - an oversight that unfortunately went unnoticed for 2.5 months. As a result, any data created during that time was never synced to iCloud and remains only in the local CoreData store. Once I pushed the schema to production, CloudKit resumed syncing new changes as expected. However, this leaves me with a gap: there's now a significant amount of data that would be lost if users delete or reinstall the app. Before I attempt to implement a manual backup or migration strategy, I was wondering: Does NSPersistentCloudKitContainer keep track of local changes that couldn't be synced doe to the missing schema and automatically reattempt syncing them now that the schema is live? If not, what would be the best approach to ensure this "orphaned" data gets saved to CloudKit retroactively. Thanks in advance for any guidance or suggestions.

Greetings my fellow engineers, I use SwiftData in my iOS app. The schema is unversioned and consists of a single model. I've been modifying the model for almost two years now and relying on automatic database migrations. I had no problems for all that time, but now trying to add a property to the model or even remove a property from the model results in an error which seems like SwiftData is no longer capable of performing an automatic migration. The log console has things like the following: CoreData: error: NSUnderlyingError : Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=134190 "(null)" UserInfo={reason=Each property must have a unique renaming identifier} CoreData: error: reason : Can't find or automatically infer mapping model for migration CoreData: error: storeType: SQLite CoreData: error: configuration: default CoreData: annotation: options: CoreData: annotation: NSMigratePersistentStoresAutomaticallyOption : 1 CoreData: annotation: NSInferMappingModelAutomaticallyOption : 1 CoreData: annotation: NSPersistentStoreRemoteChangeNotificationOptionKey : 1 CoreData: annotation: NSPersistentHistoryTrackingKey : 1 CoreData: error: <NSPersistentStoreCoordinator: 0x7547b5480>: Attempting recovery from error encountered during addPersistentStore: 0x753f8d800 Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=134140 "Persistent store migration failed, missing mapping model." Have you ever encountered such an issue? What are my options?

I work on an app that saves data to the Documents folder in the users iCloud Drive. This uses the iCloud -> iCloud Documents capability with a standard container. We've noticed an issue where a user will delete the apps data by doing to Settings > {Name} > iCloud > Storage > App Name > select "delete data from iCloud", and then our app can no longer write to or create the Documents folder. Once that happens, we get this error: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=513 "You don't have permission to save the file "Documents" in the folder "iCloud~your~bundle~identifier"." UserInfo={NSFilePath=/private/var/mobile/Library/Mobile Documents/iCloud~your~bundle~identifier/Documents, NSURL=file:///private/var/mobile/Library/Mobile%20Documents/iCloud~your~bundle~identifier/Documents, NSUnderlyingError=0x1102c7ea0 {Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=13 "Permission denied"}} This is reproducible using the sample project here https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/synchronizing-documents-in-the-icloud-environment. Steps to reproduce in that project: Tap the plus sign in the top right corner to create a new document Add a document name and tap "Save to Documents" Go to Settings > {Name} > iCloud > Storage > SimpleiCloudDocument App Name > select "delete data from iCloud" Reopen the app and repeat steps 1-2 Observe error on MainViewController+Document.swift:59 Deleting and reinstalling the app doesn't seem to help.

Hi, I am experiencing main thread freezes from fetching on Main Actor. Attempting to move the function to a background thread, but whenever I reference the TestModel in a nonisolated context or in another model actor, I get this warning: Main actor-isolated conformance of 'TestModel' to 'PersistentModel' cannot be used in actor-isolated context; this is an error in the Swift 6 language mode Is there a way to do this correctly?

In core-data I have a contact and location entity. I have one-to-many relationship from contact to locations and one-to-one from location to contact. I create contact in a seperate view and save it. Later I create a location, fetch the created contact, and save it while specifying the relationship between location and contact contact and test if it actually did it and it works. viewContext.perform { do { // Set relationship using the generated accessor method currentContact.addToLocations(location) try viewContext.save() print("Saved successfully. Locations count:", currentContact.locations?.count ?? 0) if let locs = currentContact.locations { print("📍 Contact has \(locs.count) locations.") for loc in locs { print("➡️ Location: \(String(describing: (loc as AnyObject).locationName ?? "Unnamed"))") } } } catch { print("Failed to save location: \(error.localizedDescription)") } } In my NSManagedObject class properties I have this : for Contact: @NSManaged public var locations: NSSet? for Location: @NSManaged public var contact: Contact? in my persistenceController I have: for desc in [publicStore, privateStore] { desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: NSPersistentStoreRemoteChangeNotificationPostOptionKey) desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: NSPersistentHistoryTrackingKey) desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: NSMigratePersistentStoresAutomaticallyOption) desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: NSInferMappingModelAutomaticallyOption) desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: "CKSyncCoreDataDebug") // Optional: Debug sync // Add these critical options for relationship sync desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: "NSPersistentStoreCloudKitEnforceRecordExistsKey") desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: "NSPersistentStoreCloudKitMaintainReferentialIntegrityKey") // Add this specific option to force schema update desc.setOption(true as NSNumber, forKey: "NSPersistentStoreRemoteStoreUseCloudKitSchemaKey") } When synchronization happens on CloudKit side, it creates CKRecords: CD_Contact and CD_Location. However for CD_Location it creates the relationship CD_contact as a string and references the CD_Contact. This I thought should have come as REFERENCE On the CD_Contact there is no CD_locations field at all. I do see the relationships being printed on coredata side but it does not come as REFERENCE on cloudkit. Spent over a day on this. Is this normal, what am I doing wrong here? Can someone advise?
